Hey Guys...Things are starting to calm down at work and I've started work on Goose again. In the process of putting the gas tank back in, but I'm having trouble finding the large hose that runs from the bottom of the gas filler neck to the gas tank. Where I can buy one of those?

Thanks,
Rick

I bought a new fuel filler hose at O'RILEYS $7 bucks and some change a foot.

I had to go to a specialty rubber distributor to find some. It's 1 3/8 i.d., none of the auto parts stores etc. carry this size, at least not in River City. I think I called around to some of the catalog places too, like the Truck Shop. Look in your yellow pages, I ended up with a marine grade hose with wire coiled inside, stout stuff. I bought 3ft and it was 24 bucks or so.

The one I got from one of our vendors was the wrong size. Like 71jimmy, I went to a local rubber hose company and they had just what I needed.
